Part 5: Trackbed & Remains: Fort Brockhurst Halt to Gosport Station : This section of line consisted of three level crossings: one immediately north of Fort Brockhurst station, at Military Road, one at Cambridge Road, and another at Lees Lane, where there was also a signalbox; and there was (is) a road overbridge at Anns Hill. Most of the trackbed between Fort Brockhurst Halt and Gosport still exists in the form of a cycleway & footpath, with the exception of the southern part of the triangle, which became a small industrial estate soon after the line was closed completely (1969). All the photos in this gallery were taken on one day, the 23rd June 2009, and involved a long hot walk. Included here are the sections from Lees Lane to Daisy Lane (the west side of the triangle), and from Daisy Lane to Gosport station (the east side of the triangle and part of the original line from Gosport to Stokes Bay).

Part 3: Gosport Railway Station on 16th October 2009 : A very brief visit (it was raining) to Gosport station on 16th October 2009, to check on progress. All the archways in the north wall have been unblocked, the ground to the north side is in the course of being raised to platform level, and work is well underway with the housing block in the northwest corner of the site.

Part 4: Gosport Railway Station on 25th June 2010 : Eight months on since the last time I visited Gosport station, and work there is coming on in leaps & bounds; masonry is being very accurately restored (all mortar has to be mixed with lime instead of sand), the level arch connecting the north and south walls has been put in place, and flats and offices are being built into the structure - even stairways to new upper levels, which do not extend beyond the original height of the building. A veritable hive of activety. Thanks to the chap who accompanied me around the site.

Part 2: Gosport Railway Station on 23rd June 2009 : On 23rd June, after walking all the way from Fort Brockhurst station, I peeked into Gosport station to take a few odd photos; I got talking to one of the labourers, who fetched the site manager, Andy Musselwhite, who very kindly gave me permission to access various safe parts of the site to get some shots of it all before everything changed or disappeared. Work had started in earnest, so there were areas I couldn't get to, but nevertheless I took a great deal of useful photos, and am indebted to Andy for allowing me to do so.

Part 1: Gosport Railway Station on 27th May 2009 : Well. it's finally happened - the railway line from Fareham to Gosport has now all been lifted, so since May 2009 I thought I'd try & capture what was left for posterity. Most of the vegetation had been cleared in readiness for track removal, so the line was, for a limited time, visible again, after being left to run amuck for about 16 years. The impending end of railways in the town came as no surprise; the history of the line, which closed to passengers in 1953, with goods traffic ending in 1969, is a rather dismal affair. Gosport, now with a population of above 77,000, is by far the largest town in England (at least) without a direct rail link, in fact, it's not even possible to get a bus from Gosport TO a railway station, unless you count the ferry ride to Portsmouth (not useful or cost effective if travelling west). The bus station at Fareham is more than quarter of a mile from the station; traffic jams in & out of Gosport at (especially) peak times are truly horrendous, and the long term solution to this problem has been to build endless flats & estates within the town. Classic. Anyhow, after many legal holdups, work is now well underway (June 2011) building a dedicated busway on the trackbed between Tichborne Way and Fareham, where an interchange is supposedly being constructed at, or adjacent to, the railway station. Oh well. It should have at LEAST been trams.... This first section covers Gosport station, surrounding trackbed remains, and nearby locations related to the railway. The trackbed locations, from Gosport station to Stokes Bay, Gosport station to Fort Brockhurst station, and Holbrook to Bridgemary will be found in separate sections. The walk north from Bridgemary to Fareham was beyond my old legs' capabilities.
